Welcome to Boardsort™ - Learn - Sell - Profit -

Want to confirm that everything here is perif, all guidance and suggestions are welcome.

From top to bottom, here is my thoughts.
First photo:
A: Low Grade
B: Mid Grade
C: Mid Grade
D: Peripheral
E: Mid Grade

Second and third photos:
A: Peripheral
B: Peripheral
C: Peripheral
D: Peripheral
E: Mid Grade. Probably better to harvest the lone IC chip.

Fourth photo:
A: Mid Grade, too much blank space on the board to give it anything else. Harvest the IC chips.
B: Mid Grade, no IC chips anywhere to be found
C: Mid Grade, one IC chip. Harvest it with a heat gun
D: Mid Grade, no IC chips present

Fifth photo:
A: Telecom, good IC population across the board.
B: Peripheral
C: Peripheral

Sixth photo:
A: Mid Grade, no IC chips and only power connectors, so can't offer it Backplane grade.
B: Mid Grade, too many power components. Harvest the IC chips.
C: Peripheral

Last photo:
A: Peripheral
B: Peripheral
C: Mid Grade as-is. Remove the large transformer and it may get a bump to peripheral.

My photos don't give all of the details.

In the interest of my education, here are some more details on a few of the boards that make me think that they are perif:

6 -A has a 96 pin gold conn, and a 9 pin gold conn, enough to lift?

1 - B thought that dvi were gold, and on the back the is a small odd gold conn, gold flashed and a tiny IC

4 - c & D have 2 eth ports each, B - both connectors are gold pin

Thanks for all of the guidance

A-E
B is probably peripheral with gold pin adapter and IC chips

A-E (redux)
Agree

A-D
The two large ones I think would hit peripheral for the vga ports. Much like floppy boards. The two small ones, if those are modem cards like I think peripheral if not midgrade

A-C
Agree

A-C (redux)
A is borderline mid/peripheral but with no junk I'd lean peripheral. Small serial port and big gold bus port.

A-C (the reboot)
I can't see C getting any higher unless you strip off everything except the ports and ICs. Basics meaning not worth cleaning this. Midgrade
